I left my home town Turned a good woman down Even laughed at my own Mother's plea I pushed her aside Even laughed when she cried Now I'm here in this penitentary Now Mother knows best Her love has stood the test The records will prove it, you see But youth's full of fire Challenge and desire Now I'm here in this penitentary I fell in you see with bad company And I started in gamblin' for fun One night when the cards Had been dealt and I'd lost I backed up my play with a gun Now Mother knows best Her love has stood the test The records will prove it, you see I shot and I killed For a twenty dollar bill Now I'm here in this penitentary
